AFM: Image Entertainment Picks Up 'Wolf Creek 2'

Greg Mclean co-wrote and directed the follow-up to his 2005 horror hit.

Image Entertainment has picked up all North American rights to Wolf Creek 2, the sequel to the 2005 Australian horror movie by Greg Mclean.

Mclean is back as co-writer and director, as is John Jarratt, the actor who plays psychopathic killer Mick Taylor, preying on the lost and the innocent in Australia's Outback. Shannon Ashlyn, Ryan Corr, and Phillipe Klaus co-star.

"Mick Taylor is one of the most sadistic characters I have seen onscreen, and the sequel does not disappoint -- it gets under the skin. We can't wait to show horror fans!" said Image's chief acquisition officer, Bill Bromiley.

The deal was made at AFM, and Image is planning a release in 2014.

Creek 2 premiered at this year's Venice International Film Festival, and Mclean has since signed with CAA.
